About The Award

The Fatima Bint Mubarak Award for Motherhood and Childhood was established in 2016 by Her Highness Sheikha Fatima bint Mubarak and is organized by the Supreme Council for Motherhood and Childhood. The Award recognizes rigorous research, effective initiatives, and individual leadership that have produced measurable improvements in the lives of mothers, children, and families.

Message

Leadership Message

The Award is built on a simple premise: that work in this field should be judged by its results. Across its eight categories, it honours those whose contributions can be evidenced in the health of mothers, the development and protection of children, the strength of families, and the inclusion of every child in the life of the community. In its second cycle, the Award extends this recognition internationally, positioning the UAE as a platform for the exchange of proven practice in the service of mothers and children worldwide.
